- The water quantities will be corrected, according to the following cases:

- 10% reduction for aggregates 063 mm;

- 5% reduction for aggregates 032 mm;

- 1020% reduction when using additives;

- 10% extra when crushed stones are used

- 20% extra for aggregates 08 mm;

- 10% extra for aggregates 016 mm;

- 5% extra for aggregates 022 mm;

1. Water quantity

From Table S-W -> select the initial quantity of water: W = .. l/m3

Appy corrections based on the type of aggregates and aditives (W +/-): W = l/m3

2. Water / cement ratio

From Table F1.1. F1.2. -> W/C = ..

3. Determine the quantity of cement

4. Establish the quantitiy of entraped air (uneliminated due to compaction)

P = 2% -> P = 20 dm3/m3

5. Establishing the quantity aggregates

B. LABORATORY COMPOSITION

Assume that by applying the preliminary compostion, the design workability is not obtained. Thus,
additional quantities of water are added until the required workability class is obtained.

W* = .. (imposed value)

W/C ratio is constants, thus the corrected quantity of cement is calculated:

= = .


The percentage of entraped air is constant, P = 2% -> P = 20 dm3/m3

Thus,

C. WORKING (FINAL) COMPOSITION

When the final composition of the concrete is designed, the natural humidity of the aggregates, due
to environmental actions, must be evaluated and taken into accout.

Thus, 2% humidity is imposed for the sand (Us), and 1% for the gravel (Ug).

Based on the quantites of aggregates calculated for the laboratory mix, the corresponding quantity
of water is calculated:
